Summary

Matthew Stafford is dealing with a back issue and despite the expectation he would return, was not with the Los Angeles Rams for practice on Monday. This is starting to become a bigger concern by the moment for the Rams. Also, with Anthony Richardson dealing with another injury, Daniel Jones will get the start for the Indianapolis Colts in Week 2 of the preseason, giving him a great shot to win the job. Two rookies had nice debuts over the weekend in Tyler Shough and Jalen Milroe, but only Shough has a real shot to win a starting job and he might be getting closer. Finally, James Cook voluntarily sat out of the Buffalo Bills preseason game and maybe a trade to the Dallas Cowboys for Micah Parsons would make sense.
